Kindness Week


March 27th-31st is Kindness Week here at HP! 
It is a perfect time to focus kids on what we expect our students to be caring people.  We have had a lot of behavior difficulties lately so this can help us refocus and reteach what we want for our HP Family.

1. Kindness checklists for students - there is a 2nd-5th grade checklist and a K-1 checklist.  It is optional for them to participate, but it would be really neat to have everyone participating!
  


2. Tuesday (28th) and Thursday (30th) there will be stations in Mrs. Krieser's classroom where students can make things for other people (cards, bracelets, posters, etc). Please come down if you have time! 
*4th and 5th grade - if you have students that can come down during recesses to help!

3. Dress up days M, W, F - 
Monday = Powered by Kindness - dress like a superhero
Wednesday = Team Kindness - dress like a sports player or in your favorite team gear
Friday = Dream Kindness - PJ Day

4. Hearts - I will also be putting 1 heart cut out for every student in your mailboxes for our Kindness Week bulletin board. If they hit at least 5 acts of kindness throughout the week they can put their name on the heart and write/draw one of their acts of kindness on the heart. Please get the filled out hearts to my mailbox and we will get them up on the bulletin board for all to see!

5. Please talk about kindness or do a kindness lesson sometime throughout the week - I have lots of kindness themed books if you want to borrow one
